And I only want them more now that I know there's a whole genre of video devoted to crashing them. Reminds me of the Addams Family movie. My best Lego set ever was definitely this. Yours?

Fascinating how that white train crashes in the same way real trains crash in the real world! o.0

This was my favourite one to be honest. Took a while to build, but man was it worth it. I love Legos.

Oh man, that's cool.

I don't think I ever did finish my castle. I was too young for something of that magnitude. That base piece though was completely awesome in every way though.

*Sigh* I might buy the biggest Lego set I can tomorrow. Time to wander Amazon.

Almost 6000 fucking pieces.

Almost 6000 fucking pieces.

I was just looking at the 3400 piece Eiffel Tower and the store-front sets that are a few thousand pieces each. I'm tempted to get one. Or the walking AT-AT set I saw.

You should buy a death star or imperial ship.
Those are huge and look great and awesome to build.

I miss my lego train set :c(

Sold ~30 pounds of legos for around 400 bucks.

The Death Star only has one problem for me, I wish it had some sort of exterior I could put over the insane amount of stuff going on inside. One I could open and close or something.

Ah yes I suppose. It's mainly for a collector's thing, it even has its own certificate and stand..

Lego was always a luxury for me, an unobtainable luxury, that is. I remember standing in the store for hours, gazing up at this model, fantasizing all the possible spaceships I could make with the parts inside that box, aside from the absolutely awesome ship that those pieces are supposed to create. I never did get it, but I did make a lot of spaceships with the pieces I did own.

I didn't have the luck to know about Star Wars back then either, due to the lack of the internet. It still looked awesome to me, despite my ignorance.
